There is no tax more just than
a graded or progressive Tax on
incomes. It takes from those only
who have something on which and
With which to pay. The people
with large incomes require com
mensurate protection from the law
and from society. They should
pay accordingly. The poor have a
hard time at best. They should be
exempt. An income tax is no more
a premium upon perjury" as is
often sand than Is the duty on
imports or the tax on personal
property. It must enter into any
enlightened scheme of tax reform.

ConstitutiOnality of the Law Great
ing the Commission Attacked.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Something like
a sensation vas caused in the District Su-
preme Court in the general term here to-
day by the presentation OF a petition at
tacking the Civil Service Commission,
aud asserting unconstitutIonality OF the
law by virtue OF which it exists. The pa
per ~ headed "a petition OF rights. nv
Morris ,. Miller, OF Alder Creek Oneida
county, \. Y, for redress in a case where
A, Z. Edgerton, j. Fl. Oberly and Charles
Lyman, Commissioners, and others, are
trespassers upon mis- civil and
by exercising unlawful authority and
powers" The petitioner asks "l0r an or
der or Judgment restraining, enioining
and prohibiting the Commissioners and
any and all persons from exercising the
illegal and unconstitutional power set
forth, and for such order and further re-
dress as the court shall deem meet to vim
dicate the liberties OF the petitioner and
which will adjudGe, determine and de
clare that the people of the United States
are not subjects but sovereign citizens
and that the government is in substance
as well as in form republic"
A REGULAR BOOK.
The petition forms a printed volume of
ninety four pages, most Of which are de-
voted to declaration that the civil SER
vice law is unconstitutional, because 1t

latiye branch OF the government powers

pressly reserved to the President by the
constitution. Various other reasons are
also set out IN the paper. 1t is believed
that this proceeding IS first taken with
view TO testing the legality Of the COM
missions existence. After the petition
had been presented, the court stated that
the matter came up In such shape that IL
would be necessary to consider whether
II should be taken no directly upon the
basis OF the petition or be allowed TO
come up on certldcation from the lower

The House Tables the Bill on the
Ground of Economy.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-In the House in
the morning hour to-day MIR. Oates, Of
Alabama, OIL behalf of the Committee on
Revision of Laws, called up the bill au-
thorizing the appointment and prescrib-
ing the compensation of clerks TO Sena-
tors and Representatives who are not
chairmen of committees.
Mr.. Caldwell, of Tennessee, opposed
the bill. He said no Democrat was au.
thOrIzed to vote for this increased COM
pensatiOn, for 1t was nothing more or less
than that. The platform upon which the
Democratic party had come into power
was "retrenchment and REFORM
NOT INFRINGEMENT.
Was it retrenchmen: to add 800 persons
to the list of oftce-holdersP Was it re
form to reach out and grab patronage ?
He saw in the proposition disaster to the
members and the grave of the Democratic
party. If there was any veto thunder
left in the President he would bury this
bill under trip hammer veto rather than
bury himself and his party by signing it,.
Mr., DOugherty, of Florida, favored the
proposition. but thought it should be
amended so as not TO take effect until
the Fitty-tirst Congress.
Mr.. Turner, OF Georgia, admitted that
the labors OF members OF Congress were
arduous, difficult and embarrassing, but
thought 1t hardly consistent with the pro.
fessons of the Democratic party that it
should commit itself to a measure in
tended merely to Increase the allowance
of members.
Mr.. Eden, of Illinois, moved to lay the
bill on the table, ana the motion was
agreed to by q vote Of 141 to l05.

amendments. The first was Mr Frye's
proposition for the foreign mail service,
so changed as to appropriate So. 00O, 900 for
tue carriage OF the mails TO Brazil, the
Argentine Republic, Uruguay and Para
quay. The contracts for this service are
made subject to the approval of Congress-.
Fhe other amendment gives authority to

freely opened to the public during busl-
ness hours, modifying tO that extent the
House provision limiting the authority Of
the department in this respect.
